it was recorded by Miss Knowles as occurring at Straffan in Co. 
Kildare. I collected specimens on Aug. 28th, 1906, growing 
among shingle on the shore of Lough Neagh at Ardmore Point, a 
few miles south of Antrim.—J, Apams

LATHYRUS TUBEROSUS IN SuFFoLK.—I found this rare plant in 
1907 in some quantity in the neighbourhood of Woolpit, Bury St. 
Edmunds, climbing luxuriantly among gorse and bramble; and in 
the autumn I gathered some well-ripened seed, of which in the 
beginning of 1908 two sowings were made, one about the end of 
February, the other a month later, but not a single plant has yet 
appeared. The plant has appeared again in 1908 in the same 
locality, even more plentifully, and about July a bush of bramble 
some two or three yards in diameter was quite gay with flowers. 
It has hitherto found no place in the Suffolk Flora, nor is there 
any record of its existence in either Norfolk or Cambridge. I 
have, however, a letter from a well-known botanist, who tells me 
me across it in some quantity with other introduced plants a 
few years back in Lynn Docks. Although so long overlooked, I am 
convinced it has been long established here.—JoHNn Rasor.
